Abstract

A control assistance device implements assistance in order to adjust a coefficient for a plurality of filters provided to a servo control device. The control assistance device comprises: a resonance detection unit that detects a plurality of resonance points in frequency characteristics between an input/output gain and an input/output phase shift, of the servo control device, measured on the basis of an input signal and an output signal having varying frequencies; and a resonance evaluation unit that calculates the priority levels of the plurality of resonance points. The resonance evaluation unit calculates the priority level on the basis of a distance between a point (-1,0) or a point (k, 0) (where k is a value less than -1) on a real axis on a complex plane, and a resonance point on a Nyquist locus calculated from the frequency characteristics between the input/output gain and the input/output phase shift.
